Your super neighborhood at-a-glance:

Greater Heights centers on the old suburban town of Houston Heights, which consolidated with Houston In 1919. It still retains its ban on the sale of alcoholic beverages. This has always been a community of stately mansions, comfortable bungalows and modest frame homes. Only a small number of apartment complexes replaced homes after World War II, and recent construction has been of expensive townhouses and Victorian style mansions. The old commercial areas have had only a modest revival, but the many bungalows have become some of the most sought after in the city. Few of the community’s oak-lined streets is without a lovingly restored seventy-five-year old home, or a brand new home in a compatible style.
